Just joined this forum however I've been lurking as a guest for some time.

I'm from the extreme east coast of Canada (Newfoundland....I know, some will have to google it........it's the place mentioned in the musical Come from Away if your up on that stuff).

It seems the majority of discussions on this forum always revert to organization A, breeding club B, alliance C.......a lot of acronyms for a lot of stuff. Nothing wrong with that, however due to my geographic location many of this acronyms and organizations are none existant.

In my life I've hunted over many types of dogs. Common dogs here are english setters, gsp's, Gordon's. I've owned mostly beagles. Looking to change things up a bit. I'm considering a pudelpointer. My hunting is varied. From hare to waterfowl. My wife however, wants a dog that she can walk and is generally good in the house. From everything I've "read" the pudelpointer seems to fit the bill.

While some focus on acronyms, scores, etc. My requirements are simple. Here's what I'm looking for and wondering if anyone can oblige. I'd like a healthy dog, good temperament, medium in size, and can be a good hunting companion as well as a good family pet. I don't want to be on a 2 year wait list!!!!
